The Rose Raven~Corbyn Besson-COMPLETED

Sixteen

Corbyn's POV
I knew leaving would only break her heart and that the consequences for her would be serious. But I was glad that I had gotten out of there before "it" came. I couldn't let "it" find her. I had been walking in the woods for over an hour and I was starting to get cold, my wings felt like ice in the wind and shivering temperature. My eyes went to the sky and the moon looked down on everything, I remember home. I remember being with my mother and hearing her play her harp every night in our heaven home. How I wish I could go back, maybe I could start a new life if I chose a side. My 4 other friends had, why not I? A twig snapped and I directed my head towards the sound. My hand got hot as a fireball lit in my hand. My body started to pulse with heat and my wings shot up, just in case I needed to take off.  Suddenly I felt something wrap around my ankle, I looked down, what looked like black slime was wrapped around my ankle. In a matter of seconds I took off into the sky. I didn't even get above the tree line and more black slime wrapped around my arms, legs and then my waist.
"You think you can just fly away!"
The voice of a woman, a very familiar woman, filled my brain and I screamed, trying to get out of the bond of slime. I screamed and tried to fly higher, but it was no use, with one huge pull I was pulled back down to the ground. The forest shook as I landed and the woman came towards me.
"Long time no see."
The woman wore a Marron cloak and had silver eyes, her hair was long and black. She spoke in a husky voice. Her hand lifted up my chin harshly,
"Tell me where Lucifer and his daughter is."
I tried to get out of her grip, but she wrapped more slime around me.
"No! I can't let you find him!"
"Fine then. I guess I'll just have to take you. Besides, the more your tourtured the less I have to hold a grudge."
With that she mumbled afew words and the world dissapeared.

Leyota's POV
Morning had come and my pillow was soaked by my tears. My head lifted of the pillow and my body rolled over to make it more comfortable.
"Good morning."
Jonah came in and sat next to me with a plate of Waffles.
"I'm sorry Leya, we'll find Corbyn, he'll probably come to school today."
"He dosent love me anymore."
"Oh stop, of course he does. He loves you so much and won't stay away for long."
I nodded a bit and picked at my food. Jonah went over to my book bag and zipped it up, since I had never zipped it after doing some homework before Corbyn had left. He spoke,
"Come on, let's go."
He walked out an I threw on a sweatshirt, without saying a word I walked downstairs and the boys looked at me knowing it was time to leave.

-------------------
Study hall seemed dim without Corbyn, my heart was smashed and I felt so lonely. He hadn't shown himself at all today, maybe he was just hiding himself from everyone and suprised me later. I kept my eyes on the door every few minutes wishing he would walk through. Jack tapped my shoulder,
"Hey, all of us accept Jonah are leaving early today. We need to go find him."
I gave him a look of counfusion,
"Why isn't Jonah going with?"
"He is going to stay behind and protect you."
"I can protect myself."
"Whatever you say sweetheart but guess what, if what's after you finds you, you'll be begging for help."
I nodded and looked up at the door once more. No sign of him.

------------
The boys had left and Jonah had taken me home after school. My father wasn't home and I had no clue why. My kind was jogging on the possibility on where Corbyn might be. A memory of my first day came back to me and I looked at Jonah,
"Hey."
He glanced over at me from the other side of the couch,
"Yeah?"
"What is the Rose Raven?"
His smile dissapeared,
"In heaven, you have family's and the first generation choses a symbol to represent your family. The Raven with the rose in its mouth is Corbyn's family symbol. Every angel has a marking of their family symbol on them. My symbol is an arrow with vines around it, for strength and security."
I looked at him in awe at what he just explained.
"That's so cool."
"Yeah I guess. It's kinda weird to."
He giggled and I heard a slam, the door had been flung open, Daniel was standing there out of breath,
"We found clues!"
I rushed off the couch, Jonah in tail and we headed behind my house to the woods. We we're led to a clearing and Daniel stopped us. There was Cracked ground in a big circle and there was black goo everywhere. Zach looked frightened,
"It's like tar. It can seal you down to the ground and only the person with those powers can set you free."
Jonah spoke,
"Who could have done this?"
"You don't think it was her?"
They all looked at each other in fear.
"Hey!"
Daniel came out from behind a tree and held up a piece of paper,
"A clue."
We gather around as he unfolded it and it said, The University of London. Daniel looked up,
"We need to go."
